From Eric Fuller's description: The half hour puzzle is a Stewart Coffin classic, and if you don't have a copy in your collection you really should. Although this puzzle is fun and approachable by anyone, it's far from simple. The pieces were deliberately chosen to be as tricky as possible, and there is only one solution. Mr. Coffin has this to say about it: "The six-piece version of the 3 x 3 x 3 cube will be considered first. For aesthetic reasons, one might prefer that all the pieces be the ...

Missing Link - designed by David Hirsch, made by Philos Spiele. Comes with instruction sheet, not shown in photo. You can actually make a pyramid with the eight pieces, too, and there are solutions which require color constraints listed on the solution sheet. The basic idea is to assemble the pieces such that the light/dark pattern on opposite sides is identical. Don't know why it's called "missing link", since that confuses it with the old plastic puzzle of the same name. Don't remember when I ...

Description : Daedalus seems to be a classic interlocking 3x3x3 cube, but, on the internal hidden faces, pins inside grooves, can define it, like an internal evolutionary maze. When a piece moves, a part of the maze moves with. Each unit of the cube has edges cut which permit rotations. All the possible moves can be used. One unique solution, level : 49 (23, 9, 8, 3, 3, 1, 2) rotations required. A booklet of the solution, step by step, is provided. This puzzle was an entry of the...

Open Window, exchange puzzle for IPP32, designed by Tom Jolly, mfg Tim and Carol Udall. Four sliding pieces in a frame (well...three after you pop out the key piece) with a slightly tricky solution. Harder to reassemble, especially if you didn't see it taken apart. There was another version of this with a closed back, but I only made 2 of them. This one, both sides are open. Weighs 10 oz with shipping box.

Due to the unusual nature of this puzzle, I will ship it in its solved state. When I first purchased it, the seller tried to ship it in a locked state but it became unlocked during shipping; the same happened when I shipped it to someone else on a loan. For a spoiler, see: http://www.grand-illusions.com/toycollection/bee_box/

From Cubicdissection.comMy latest puzzle box, the 51 Pound box, has been about six months in the making.

Each puzzle is supplied with one pound - the other 50 you must provide yourself!Painstakingly handcrafted from the finest materials, the box features some very nice inlay and intersting stepped miter joinery on the edges of the shell box. Custom internal mechanisms we...

This is the 2nd version of the Byway Secret series. There are 2 spaces inside, and you'll be able to open the 1st space easily. But, it takes 10 moves to open the 2nd space, and you'll miss your way to open. The right side and the reverse side will intertwine and move each other. It was made with a new mechanism that is an application of traditional Himitsubako's bar device.
